ketteQ, a trail-blazing provider of autonomous supply chain planning and optimization solutions that leverage AI and Machine Learning to deliver breakthrough levels of operational and financial performance, announced leading consumer packaged goods company Alliance Consumer Group (ACG Brands) has selected ketteQ to optimize its global supply chain.
ACG Brands has a vast distribution network, spanning more than 50 countries and more than 50,000 retail stores. Its products are also available through its own website, as well as popular ecommerce sites like Amazon and Walmart. And with its own distribution center as well as distribution partners throughout the world, ACG Brands has a robust and complex supply chain that requires end-to-end visibility to remain agile and competitive in today’s market.
Previously, ACG Brands lacked clear visibility into supply planning and faced inaccurate demand forecasts with new products. The company was seeking ways to provide a real-time promise date and allocate orders that not only honored those promise dates, but also achieved its goals for service, on-time in-full (OTIF), revenue and inventory.

By leveraging Salesforce and generative AI, ACG Brands has expanded supply chain transparency across the organization at record speed.
